basic bread dough
Recipe:
Bread Flour 270g
Instant Yeast 3g
Sugar 35g
Salt 4g
Whole egg 32g
Milk 138g
Butter 27g



Procedures:
-
Microwave milk for about a minutes or so until it is warm (lukewarm, test by finger). Add in yeast and sugar and gently mix by a spoon. (Sugar is food for yeast and their optimum temperature is around 40 degree C, if the temperature is higher, it kills the yeasts.
-
Put the flour in a large bowl, make a whole in the center, pour in the milk mixture. Add salt to the side (because it may kill the yeast). Then start mixing.
-
Add in eggs and knead until it almost incorporated.
-
Add in butter and knead unitl it forms a dough.
-
Set aside and let it rise for an hour (it might take longer than this, especially during winter time). It should be double in size.
-
Give it a punch in the center to release the gas it produced.
-
Then start doing the bread you want. :)
